delimit_reddit_scan

Scan 25+ subreddits to find ranked outreach targets for comment drafting.

Instructions

Bulk scan 25+ subreddits for outreach targets (Pro).

When to use: as a venture-agnostic bulk Reddit scan — returns ranked, categorized targets ready for comment drafting. When NOT to use: for venture-scoped scan (use delimit_reddit_fetch_thread or delimit_social_target) or one specific thread.

Sibling contrast: delimit_reddit_fetch_thread is single thread; delimit_social_target is multi-platform venture scan; this is the broad Reddit pass.

Side effects: read-only network via residential proxy. Rate limited to 1 req / 2sec. The orchestrator must chain (per rule below).

IMPORTANT -- TOOL CHAINING RULE: After scanning, the AI MUST process high_priority targets:

  1. Draft replies via delimit_social_post or delimit_notify

  2. Create ledger items for strategic opportunities via delimit_ledger_add Never just return targets and stop. Always chain.

Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Discloses read-only network via residential proxy, rate limit of 1 req/2sec, and mandatory chaining rule. No annotations present, but description covers key behavioral aspects thoroughly.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Well-structured with clear sections (intro, usage, exclusions, side effects, chaining rule). Every sentence adds value without redundancy.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given 2 parameters fully documented in schema and presence of output schema, the description covers purpose, usage, behavioral traits, and chaining requirements completely.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100% with both parameters having descriptions. Description adds no extra meaning beyond what schema already provides, meeting baseline expectations.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Clearly states it scans 25+ subreddits for outreach targets, with verb 'scan', resource 'subreddits', and specific purpose. Contrasts with siblings directly.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly defines when to use (venture-agnostic bulk scan) and when not (venture-scoped or single thread), with alternative tools named. Provides clear context.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
